Hi Holger Freyther
(I don't know which is the first name and which is the last name so I use both your names :-)   )

I've asked the same things a while ago, I think about a year ago, and received no answer, so I guess this project is kind of ... let's say not so alive :-)
But I think we should resurrect it, since it's open source and a great tool.
I made a patch for the stable version so it can save the results in a text file and fixed some minor bugs and I also have some Ideas of making some improvments.

Maybe we should get busy :-)

Hey Guys, Soeren,

I would be interested in taken over the maintainer-ship of memprof. I think it
is a great tool, I use it when looking at the memory allocations of
WebKit/GTK+ and the current state saddens me a bit and I would like to change
it.

As of now there is no website for memprof. Owen's Red Hat page is referring to
a non-existent page on projects.gnome.org, the website mentioned in the README
does not exist as well, there is a small compile issue with fortify enabled
gcc (the usual open with O_CREAT but no third argument).

kind regards
       holger

Yes, I have seen it and planned to take a look at it. Currently the code is on
repo.or.cz so more than one can contribute to it.

Hi there,

I tried the same a while ago, with help from some other folks, and we
decided to "fork" the code and apply user-provided patches.
Unfortunately our momentum faded from various reasons and it got stalled
again, but we made a slight progress from the original version. Our
code, with some GUI improvements can be found at
http://hg.atheme.org/memprof-revived

Feel free to apply them to the repo.or.cz git repo. I'll try to join
your effort as my time allows it.

Best regards,
Cristi

Yes, I stumbled across this on ohloh today but a google search didn't show me
this repository. I have seen you guys merged raster changes, I had this on my
list as well... actually raster told me about memprof on one of our taxi
drives to the Openmoko office in taipei...

One thing that catched my was the porting to FreeBSD/Dragonfly. I think you
could have minimized the amount of #ifdef, So far only the flags have different
names (ptrace) or an argument has a different value. This can be nicely
abstracted in platforms defining MEMPROF_PTRACE_PEEK_DATA and such..

but thanks a lot for pointing me to the repository, I will merge some changes!
I still have the hope that we can push things back to the GNOME repository...

Hey Cristi, could you tell me how to hg clone the memprof-revised repository?
The obvious usage with the url above didn't work.

Hello,

I know it's not obvious, but appending a / should be enough.

Cristi
